Letter to the editor: Immigrants who commit crimes should be deported
I am not against properly vetted immigration to the United States. I am opposed to the thousands of non-vetted immigrants that the Biden administration has let flood over our border.
The scenes of New York police officers being mauled by a gang of immigrants goes beyond words. Some of these people are kidnappers, extortionists, murderers, gang members, thieves and drug dealers with absolutely no respect for law or order. I fully support the governor of New York when she says when caught, they should be deported. What is sad is that there is bipartisan opposition to this. Shame on you political stooges.
I say when caught, they should be expedited to trial, and if found guilty, they should be deported within 24 hours. This would save the taxpayers from having to feed and house them in jail. These savings would outweigh the cost of a one-way ticket on “con air” out of the country.
It is time to step up, Washington. It is high time you start doing your jobs. Try it once; you might like it, and you just might feel credible for a change. If not, the voters will fix it for you at the polls ASAP.
